Y/n listens to the birds outside the compound's walls, until hearing a staggered breath. She quickly followed the sound and found the figure. Bucky Barnes.

Y/n had a colorless form and strange pupils. She was a Refugee of her home world, when he landed on earth- where she met a certain retired spy. She and Yelena became a close duo, while you hid your embroidered skin as much as possible, Yelena contacted the Avengers. All they knew was- you were a refugee and wanted to protect your new home.

That's when you met those blue eyes.
Those blue eyes who cowered ahead of you now. Y/n frowns and walks to the man, wearing her wacky rainbow gloves and face coverings. She took a seat beside him. "I.. Am detecting something's wrong." you begin, Bucky was ready to get up and leave when you jumped up and formed some confetti above him.

"Happy Lieutenant Barnes!" you cheered, hands out. The man looked up and picked the paper from his hair. "What..?"
"It is a traditional celebration- right? Everyone celebrating these outings seems so happy." Bucky laughed, "And it has done so with you." You add, "I wish I had a day of Happenings!" You slide down next to him again. "Birthdays?" You nod, "You don't have one?" Bucky asks, looking down at your covered eyes. "No. Where I come from- it's unheard of. But I have seen others really enjoy theirs here. And that's probably enough." Bucky smiles bitterly.

You sounded a bit like him. "What did you say your name was?" "Y/n." "That's a pretty normal-sounding name for someone from space." He says, "New planet, new name, new birthdays." Bucky smiles softly at your antics, "What weighs you down, Lieutenant Barnes?" You ask, curiously. "You don't need to call me that."
"Don't I?"
"No. Bucky works."

"Whatever you wish, Bucky." He lightly blushes, watching his name coming from your mouth. He looks at your clothes, a bit retro for today, but covered in colors and rainbow accessories. But his eyes landed on your rainbow gloves. Clearly for winter, but it was an August afternoon. "I like your gloves." He grumbles, You smile brightly. "Earth has so many new colors! I want to wear all of them. So I do." You look at his one-gloved hand. "It appears we have matching accessories! I can't believe we could have so much in common." If it was anyone else saying those words- He'd shove them off as a flirt.

But you clearly were foreign to social cues. Bucky decided he liked that about you. He didn't have to try to jam into a certain label, because you didn't even know what the label said. Maybe that's why he came back to the compound again tomorrow. And the next day, hoping to see you again. His gloved goddess. The one he could barely see through your disguises and coverings.

Bucky walks through the lobby and training agents of the compound, until entering a full conference room, full of arguing Avengers. That's when he saw a familiar head hanging down in shame. He had seen your white hair peek through before, but it was finally free to frame your face. "We don't know what we are dealing with!" Tony begins, while Bucky watches the crack on your cheek spread. You were like a Porcelain doll, cracking under pressure.

You couldn't even look at him, your eyes stayed glued to the ground. "Steve.." Bucky raises his voice, letting his friend know he was going to shut this down. "Oh, so you decided to be an Avenger today? The day your little girlfriend gets busted?" Tony remarks. Bucky walked towards the billionaire when Steve stepped in front of him. "Buck-" "You are hurting her!" He shouts, they all look at the spreading crack on your cheek. "Y/n what's going on?" "I apologize for my malfunction, Agent Romanoff." Your voice sounded so blank, and void.

"What did you do to her?" Bucky storms the man angrily. That's when Nick Fury walked in, "ENOUGH!" you flinched and covered yourself in defense, ready to take the punishment. When the room fell quiet. Bucky's eyes widened. Y/n looked to the room when she didn't feel the impact. A light blinded the room, and when everyone could see again, you were gone.

Bucky rushes through the lights out the door, covering his eyes. "Y/n?!" He looks through the Hall, adjusting to the sudden light before. Watching a figure run off, he quickly follows suit. You took a turn and locked yourself in an empty conference room, breathing heavily. Bucky jostles the knob, banging on the door. "Y/n.! Come on- Doll-" He watched a light form under the door, Bucky quickly caved in the door with his metal arm.

You jumped from the window, he slid and caught your hand. Unexpecting your light as a featherweight, you used it to pounce off the wall of the building and glide down to the floor. His eyes widened, he had no idea you could do that.
Nevertheless, you ran and ran, hearing loud footsteps behind you.

You pounced up, now floating in the sky, you couldn't fly but you could control how fast your safe descent down was. Now, it'll be weeks only for a few feet. You saw Bucky's worried face looking up. He wasn't like them. You knew that, you were just so scared.

You glided down to the forest floor, your clothes catching up with you. "What happened?" Bucky asked sternly, checking your cracked cheek. You quickly hid your face with your hand, "I apologize -Lieutenant- Bucky. I shouldn't have assumed your actions or intentions. I was afraid, and I- I'm sorry. You are not like them." You said, Bucky stepped closer, before lightly moving your hand to look at your face. This was the first time he would get a good look. A look at the alien he loved, how alien she truly looked. White-filled eyes, shaped pupils, symbols, and a crack across your cheek, leading down your neck.

"Don't do that." He says slowly. "What..?" Y/n asks, "Hide- from me." He finally said. "Now-Tell me why you flinched earlier." Your eyes quickly left his boots. "Y/n." Her eyes trailed back to his, who were trying to find her own. She looked at his hand next, hesitant to grab it. Bucky notices and lightly takes it on his own, where you lead it to your cracked neck. "It's stupid.. I ran away to another planet to be able to speak again, but still not able to say the words." She says.

"You don't have to say anything. I- understand now." He said grimly. "Understand enough. You can tell me the rest later." Y/n slowly nods. "I parked my bike outside the compound." "If they see you with me- they'll think other of you." You warn, "When has that ever bothered me?" Bucky smiles. You follow the man who hasn't let go of your hand to the back of the compound.

Escaping just like you did then.
